Thank you for the response. I have a 2015 Leaf with 45k miles. What is a CPO warranty? I do assume they are keeping some portion for themselves. Thanks for the help.

I talked to NMAC yesterday. They told me that there was an end of lease discount for January only and that I had to talk to the dealer to get the amount of the discount. I talked to the dealer who gave me the final price which was discounted about $4k below residual. I have 2 months left on...

I have cancelled several times. It is just a phone call. You may have to tell them no thank you several times but it is like canceling anything these days.

Thanks for the ideas. I too think that finding a business will be tough. I would love to give it to someone that an L2 would help them go the EV route. If I don't find that, I will likely go the silent auction or raffle route to benefit a cause.

I wanted to get ideas for what I should do with and extra Level 2 charger I won in a drawing from Nissan. It is an Aerovironment EVSE-RS - same model I had purchased from Nissan when I first got my LEAF. i cannot use it at my house or a family members house. I would like to pay it forward...

I also have a 2012 (turning my lease in today for a 2015 lease), I have over 40k miles, have not lost a bar (that I can tell), in Maryland, and have a 25 mile commute (mostly highway, rolling backups, 10 mi of back roads). Prior to this winter, I did not have charging at work. On cold days...

I don't quite understand where the $5k discount offer is coming from. I have essentially the same lease arrangement as the OP (mine ends in Sept). I called NMAC and they said that I would have to contact the dealer to see about any discount offer, that NMAC does not make such offers. However...

I agree with Valdemar - I have subscribed to the EVgo monthly subscription plan to support the effort for more QC in the MD-DC area and for the peace of mind. I don't expect to need it much, but if I really need a charge due to unforeseen emergency or long trip, the QC is the only real...

To the various engineers on this forum- I recently turtled to the point of coasting to a stop (a few miles short of my home, Freak snow storm, poor planning, etc.). I was able to get it charged up to full in time for my commute the next morning. Ever since the turtle, I seem to get more range...

Make sure your climate control is truly off when you want it off.

How are leaf owners doing in MN in -30 degree temps? Please let us know if there are any of you brave pioneers out there and how the car is performing. Thanks.

Your commute should not be a problem. I live in MD and drive 50-65 each day on a single charge. Go for it!

Sounds like a great challenge. I think it is great that you are trying such a feat and breaking new ground, pushing the limits, etc. Best of luck, be safe, and keep us posted.

What is the customer service number?

I was talking to EVgo today about their plans in the area. They expect to have 4 QC stations in DC and NoVA and 1 in Towson by year end and 10 total stations by EOY 2014, including one in Queenstown. I used their station in DC recently and was pretty impressed. They are planning for a total...
